70 the Flitor Of fhe 1ndiananols Journal.
For the information Of the readers OF the
Journal desire to correct the statements made
in your issue of yesterday. in regard to the
''barbaric' stone fence -four or four and half
feet high" which you said was being built
around the State-house grounds. Nothing of
the kind mentioned is being built, or was ever
contemplated. This monstrous stone fence,
when viewed in its actual size shrinks in alti-
tude to simple, single stone curb, fourteen
inches high above the sidewalk, placed there to
mark the line of the grounds and protect the
sod. There may be some liliputian that cannot
see over the curb to view the grounds Within
and if so it will be his misfortune IS they will
be nicely graded and we'll worth seeing.

THE WOOL TOPS" QUESTION.

Under the decisions of the United

"Wool Tops" are admitted to entry as
secured wool. imported in other than
ordinary condition, as now and hereto
fore practised." dutiable at twice the
rate of secured wool. \ large firm in
New York imported a lot of these wool
tops; protested against paying duty at
twice the rate levied upon secured wool /;
appealed from the collectors decision I:
and have sued the collector of New York
to recover the amount paid in excess of
that chargeable on secured wool. This
case is likely to come to trial before the
United States circuit court of the district
of New \ DIRK, at any day. and there is
great danger of the court deciding against
the government. In anticipation of
the probability of such a decision. VIM.
Whitman of Boston, president of the
National association of Wool Manufac-
turers. has had prepared, under his di-
rection. an exhaustive argument upon
the question. claiming that wool tops
are manufactures of WOOL" and are,
therefore. subject to the same rate of
duty as wooden cloths. In the prepare
ton of the argument he has also coupled
with the ''Wool Top" question an ex-
haustive inquiry into the classification
of worsted cloths. claiming that under
the tariff law these goods should be du-
table as "woolen cloths. or manufactures
of wool, and not as manufactures of
worsted." The whole argument was
prepared with great care and under
legal advice, and was then submitted to
a large number of prominent iurists,
manufacturers and merchants. who gave
it their hearty and unqualified endorse
ment. On the Sth of July he appeared
before the assistant secretary of the
treasury, at Washington, and presented
the argument referred to- and says he
has every reason to believe that it will
receive at his hands careful considerable
and impartial attention. His argument,
which is altogether too lengthy to be
reproduced in these columns, appears in
the last number of the Bulletin of the
ASSOCIATION named, and is most exhaust
